Okay, so they're not jockstraps in the classical sense, but Under Armour is recalling 211,000 "athletic cups." Do you own one? Are you scared? You should be. The release frighteningly warns: "Hazard: The cups can break if hit, posing a risk of serious injury hazard to athletes." Sure, if you're playing roshambo. Either way (via SportsbyBrooks) the rest of the release is here, and might we kindly suggest getting a new "cup" as quickly as you possibly can.
All you're going to get is a $20 voucher to use on more Under Armour products, but you're also covering your balls from being hurt, which is more important. But really, this was just an excuse to post this, which underlies the beautiful irony in Under Armor's most defensive (and most important, I'd suggest) garment being defective. Please enjoy.
